about
Composer, trumpeter, and educator, Kevin McKee lives in the Washington DC area. His pieces have been performed extensively throughout North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. In the composer’s own words:
“The initial idea for [Last Lap] came from wanting to incorporate the "passing car" sound that every trombone player has played at some point or another into a work, but not in a silly way. Out of that grew the idea to have the piece be about a car race. It begins with the sound of several racecars approaching and passing the listener as if they were a bystander at a race. Then, bringing up the rear is one lone car. It approaches, but instead of passing like the others we are swept inside the car and the race! Through mishap and comeback we stay in the driver's seat all the way through the Last Lap and the checkered flag.”
